Hi, guys.
I have recently been pretty much diagnosed with occipital neuralgia. I say pretty much because I am waiting for an MRI for my brain and vertabrea to rule out that.
I have severe burning on the back of my head, stiff neck, and headaches and had my first round of steriods yesterday. They went into the base of my skull area.
I am currently on 60 mg of baclofen and 1200 mg of Neurotin. Both have really helped with the pain alot.
Right now I'm having some kind of reaction to those shots, my face is burning and the doctor informed me its just the meds moving around and to take benedryl but that has not worked.
Anyway, I look forward to reading up here and learning.
